What if we told you that you could save half your make up foundation. Yes, no more wasting with a new type of beauty blender. It’s called the SiliSponge. Molly Cosmetics wrote on their Instagram account, “it doesn’t soak in a thing!” This changes the glam game. Completely! Here’s why…

So, what exactly is it?

As its name suggests, it’s a neat little contraption makeup sponge made of silicon, though it looks a lot more like a silicone breast implant or some clear coloured Jelly – that’s just us though.

And the benefits?

The foundation you need when using the SiliSponge is literally just half the amount compared to directly using a makeup brush or sponge. Even though spreading product with it across your face will take some getting used to, the final blending can always be finished with oval brush or usual sponge (for example beautyblender), that means washing the oval brush or the sponge will be minimised and they will last a whole lot longer. You save!

Should you use it?

This is perfect for people who don’t like messy fingers during makeup. And I bet you can imagine cleaning this applicator will literally take no more effort than rubbing it with a little soap and rinsing with some lukewarm water. This is indeed exciting times for professional makeup artists, you can use it one client, clean it up with a makeup remover and sanitising spray and voilà good to go again. Throwing away disposable sponges can be totally ditched which means you save loads of product and cash too.
